Why do you think another protocol which has barely any implementations at the moment would be better when confronted with the same problem: many developers, interpreting some things in many ways?

and basically all the comments. including yours.
I wasn't specifically endorsing Bluesky, but it would not be surprising if a professional, clean slate protocol based on the "learnings" of the past would be simpler to implement and just all round better. I think the use of DIDs opens up to many interesting options, none of which need to use a blockchain.
It's a shame about ActivityPub, I think Linked Data is a really important tech that hasn't been picked up enough, but from what I hear it's a really half hearted implementation at best.
I think the main thesis of what she is saying is that there are a many places where developers need to think for themselves because the spec has many blind spots. But that's why we also develop tools and libraries to make it easier for future devs to start from a good foundation. She is doing it (as far as I know), and I am doing it.

I have developed too but it wasn't very difficult for me. Well, in most cases all my problems were due to my laziness to read ActivityPub rfcs carefully.
